Preview Roundups
November 07, 2017
Milwaukee at Cleveland 7:00 PM ET
The Cleveland Cavaliers snapped a four-game losing streak by jumping on LeBron James' back on Friday, but they learned on Sunday that can't be an every-game occurrence. The Cavaliers will try to get their star some help and avoid another loss when they host the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday.
New Orleans at Indiana 7:00 PM ET
The Indiana Pacers started their road trip off with a bang but limp back home after dropping the final two stops of the three-game trip at Philadelphia and New York. The New Orleans Pelicans, who visit the Pacers on Tuesday, are moving in the opposite direction with wins in back-to-back road contests.
Dallas at Washington 7:00 PM ET
The Washington Wizards bounced back from a high-profile loss with an impressive win despite being without their star player. The Wizards hope to have All-Star point guard John Wall back when they go for back-to-back wins while hosting the struggling Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday.
Charlotte at New York 7:30 PM ET
Kristaps Porzingis has elevated his game during the New York Knicks' current homestand, which ends Tuesday night against the Charlotte Hornets. The 22-year-old Porzingis scored a career-high 40 points in Sunday's 108-101 win over Indiana, which gave the Knicks a 3-1 mark on the homestand and their star forward an average of 33.5 points during the stay at Madison Square Garden.
Chicago at Toronto 7:30 PM ET
The Toronto Raptors' long-awaited return home resulted in a disappointing loss. They will try to secure their first home victory in well over two weeks when they host the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday night.
L.A. Clippers at San Antonio 8:30 PM ET
The Los Angeles Clippers' hot start is a thing of the past after four losses in the last five games -- all at home -- and things only get tougher as they embark on a stretch with eight of nine on the road. The first of those contests is Tuesday, when the Clippers visit the San Antonio Spurs.
Brooklyn at Denver 9:00 PM ET
D'Angelo Russell was acquired by the Brooklyn Nets to be a difference-maker and the early returns are favorable. Russell has scored 23 or more points in four of his first nine contests with Brooklyn and looks to add another one to the tally when the Nets visit the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday in the third stop of a five-game road excursion.
Philadelphia at Utah 9:00 PM ET
The Philadelphia 76ers matched their longest winning streak since the 2013-14 campaign and look to make it five straight victories when they visit the Utah Jazz on Tuesday. The Jazz represent a major road block as they have beaten Philadelphia nine consecutive overall times and 12 straight at home dating back to 2005.
Memphis at Portland 10:00 PM ET
Damian Lillard is on a scoring spree and the Portland star looks to top 30 points for the fifth straight game when the Trail Blazers host the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday. Lillard is averaging 34.3 points during his run, and tallied 36 points in Portland's 103-99 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday.
Oklahoma City at Sacramento 10:00 PM ET
The Oklahoma City Thunder are working on their chemistry and feel they aren't too far away from winning more games. The reconfigured Thunder look to get back to the .500 mark on Tuesday when they visit the woeful Sacramento Kings, who have lost seven straight contests.
